ARLINGTON, Texas — Everyone is fully aware that the Houston Texans are in a rebuild situation, and it is going to take some time, draft picks, and free agents to get them back to winning AFC South titles again. General manager Nick Caserio will have to continue to piece together the franchise, which will require patience from the fan base. He will need to have cornerstone pieces in place during that process.
Rookie safety Jalen Pitre has emerged as one of those foundational pieces of the house that Caserio is building. Figuratively speaking, he is considered part of the concrete that is being laid. Literally speaking, he is hitting opposing receivers and running backs like a ton of bricks.
